Artwork of Link riding the Spinner in Hyrule Warriors

In Hyrule Warriors and Hyrule Warriors Legends, scanning an amiibo gives the player an amiibo reward the first time it is scanned each day, with some amiibo for The Legend of Zelda characters giving special rewards. Up to five amiibo rewards can be obtained each day. A Medal is achieved after receiving 100 amiibo rewards. amiibo functionality was added to Hyrule Warriors in the Version 1.4.0 patch, which was released on November 27, 2014 worldwide; Hyrule Warriors Legends will have amiibo functionality from launch.

Scanning a Link or Toon Link amiibo unlocks the Spinner if it is not already unlocked. Otherwise, scanning a Link or Toon Link amiibo rewards the player with a random third tier weapon for Link rated 3 stars or higher. Link and Toon Link can both yield amiibo rewards the same day.

Scanning a Zelda or Sheik amiibo rewards the player with a random third tier weapon for the scanned character rated 3 stars or higher. Zelda and Sheik can both yield amiibo rewards the same day. If the third tier is not unlocked for that character, the player can receive a third tier weapon for any character.

Scanning any other amiibo rewards the player with a random weapon rated 3 stars or lower, a random Material, or a random amount of Rupees.

Promotional image for amiibo compatibility

The Toon Link costume allows Mario to pull out the Deku Leaf when jumping. Its associated jingles are from The Wind Waker: the item obtainment tune will play when the costume is first obtained, the music from when Link completes the Boating Course will play when the goal pole is reached, and the music from when Link is thrown into a cell in the Forsaken Fortress will play when Mario loses a life.

The Tingle costume allows Tingle to strike a pose by pressing up. Its associated jingles are from various games: the "Kooloo-Limpah" jingle from The Wind Waker[citation needed] will play when the costume is first obtained, the music from when Link rescues Epona from Lon Lon Ranch in Ocarina of Time will play when the goal pole is reached, and the event failure tune from Majora's Mask will play when Mario loses a life.
